S. Korean authorities' policy of toeing U.S. line blasted

KCNA

    Pyongyang, May 22 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the National Democratic Front of South Korea in a statement on May 20 dismissed the South Korean chief executive's recent trip to the United States as treacherous and humiliating diplomacy towards the U.S. as he preferred cooperation with foreign forces to national cooperation. The spokesman said:
    During his U.S. visit he did not utter anything right as regards the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK but meekly accepted the bush group's brigandish logic. He supported even the inclusion of words "consideration of further steps" and "future inter-Korean exchanges and cooperation will be conducted in the light of developments on North Korean nuclear issue" in a "joint statement" published with the U.S.
    This is an unpardonable challenge to all the Koreans and the international community aspiring after a peaceful solution to the "north's nuclear issue" and peace and reunification on the Korean Peninsula and an act of treachery diametrically running counter to the June 15 Joint Declaration.
    The authorities should face up to the trend of the times and behave with discretion.
    If they truly want peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and its reunification, they should go in for cooperation with the DPRK, not pursuing cooperation with the U.S. in support of its hostile policy toward the DPRK and moves for a nuclear war.
    National cooperation based on the idea of "by our nation itself", the basic spirit of the June 15 Joint Declaration, is the only way of averting a war and defending peace on this land, achieving national independence and bringing earlier reunification.
    The people will never tolerate the authorities' humiliating policy of toeing the u.s. line but defend the nation's right to existence and peace on the Korean Peninsula and preserve and implement the joint declaration through decisive resistance for peace against the U.S. and war.
    If the authorities continue to pursue the pro-U.S. policy, going against the nation's will and the trend of the times, they will not escape strong denunciation from the people in the south and all other fellow countrymen.
